There have been numerous attempts over the years to supply a 'strucutured cabling' solution. In the end it's cheaper and actually easier to install separate wires. Most of the time where the wires need to run isn't the same place. Power goes to one place, network another, audio, etc. That and the structured cables are far more bulky and more hassle to handle. Translating into increased labor costs. Finally, terminating the cable often required special connectors, adding more to the cost and labor expense. Thus running regular wire, separately, ends up being a better solution. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||

Power goes to one place, network another, audio, etc. Yup for audion and such having different cable passing as far away as possible from 110 volt is the way to go. But when its time to send signal that control automation module, passing the wiring in one shot can be very usefull.. That and the > structured cables are far more bulky and more hassle to handle.
